Training for mixed doubles

Badminton Science Podcast

Show Notes

This is the last episode of the series of how to train for the different categories. To finish it off I talk about training for mixed doubles. Can you train the same way as a men's doubles player or women's doubles and still see success in mixed doubles? This and a lot more practical advice will be a part of this episode.
